From Dial M for Murder and Vertigo to North by Northwest, Psycho and The Birds, Alfred Hitchcock (1899-1980) made some of the most memorable thrillers in the annals of theatre. Acclaimed for both his daring imaginative innovations and his irrepressible showmanship, Hitchcock combined suspense, humor, and psychologically unsettling designs to create an extraordinary body of work.In Simply Hitchcock, publisher and movie critic David Sterritt explores the famous director's entire career, from its beginnings in the British silent film industry to its glory times in Hollywood. He shows Hitchcock as a consummate artist who dealt with profound existential and emotional issues, and a mischievous prankster who adored playing steps on the audience rather than missed a chance to pull a dead rabbit out of your hat.With wit and erudition, Simply Hitchcock paints a comprehensive portrait of an excellent and intricate man, who not only made indelible motion pictures, but also succeeded in creating himself as the utmost instantly recognizable movie director ever.
